As per my knowledge it would be 60sec * 5(no. of retries) plus the time taken by the lower layer driver(hba) to detect the failure. Is this correct ?? Is there a way available to reduce this "timeout/retry count" value without modifying sd.c -subodh -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup
